Commercial Real Estate News

The Canadian restaurant industry is big business! The more than 70,000 full- and limited-service restaurants in operation across Canada generate almost $80 billion in revenue according to the Canadian Restaurant and Foodservices Association. More than a third of these restaurants are part of multi-unit national and international brands.

Ann White is the owner, CEO and publisher of RENX.ca and SustainableBiz.ca. She launched RENX in 2001 as a part-time venture and has grown the publication to become a primary source of online news for the Canadian real estate industry. SustainableBiz.ca was launched in February 2016.
Prior to RENX, she had a website hosting and development company that built more than 30 websites between 1997 and 2001. During the '90s, she worked as a project manager in the co-operative housing sector in Toronto, guiding multi-unit developments from land acquisition through to occupancy.
While RENX hires professional journalists to write and deliver its news, Ann White continues to be a hands-on owner of RENX; writing the occasional article, posting to social media and attending conferences to stay tuned to the industry trends. This is in addition to all other responsibilities associated with operating a small business.
